Car Seat Appointments Available in Key Largo and Marathon

Monroe County, FL – Florida Keys Healthy Start Coalition is working hard to make child safety education and supplies available to all Keys parents.  Certified car seat technicians are available to help parents by checking installation on car seats already installed as well as providing new, low cost car seats for Monroe County children.

Appointments are available on Wednesday, September 28, from 12:30-2 pm in Key Largo or on Wednesday, October 12, from 11:30 am-1 pm in Marathon. Appointments must be made at least 2 days in advance by calling 305-293-8424.  The exact location will be given at that time.  After October 12, appointments will be made on as as-needed basis.

Each car seat appointment takes approximately 30 minutes. Parents need to bring their children or know their exact current height, weight and age. In order to continue this program, a donation of $25 is requested for every new seat provided.

Parents, remember that when you purchase your own safety equipment, car seats and booster seats for use in motor vehicles are exempt from sales tax, as are bicycle helmets marketed for use by youth.

Any Monroe County parent who needs assistance with safety supplies or basic needs for their young children can contact Florida Keys Healthy Start Coalition at 305-293-8424.
